I'd love to move to FF, but it has a virtual desktop bug dating back to 2007 [0], which is a showstopper for me.
When reopening FF, e.g., after restarting Win or Linux, all FF windows are restored to a single virtual desktop, even if they were on different desktops previously. Chromium-based browsers don't seem to have this problem.
They tried fixing it a few times [1,2], but the bug persists, and I am not aware of any add-ons that could serve as workarounds.

- evilpie 5y agoAll the bugs you linked are marked as fixed, so unless you open a new bug with clear steps of reproducing your specific issue, it's probably never going to happen.
- dr_kiszonka 5y agoRight. There a few more bug reports that I didn't link to. I have just found one saying that the bug will be fixed in FF 94. I don't have high hopes because this bug seems to come back from the dead soon after being fixed, but fingers crossed!
